Concepting for Assignment model

owith the help of fFor this assignment, we have to create a model from the following list:

  • Windmill
  • Cuckoo Clock
  • Treasure Chest
  • Sword and Shield
  • Sci-fi Helmet or Radio
  • Old Well
  • Magic Staff

I was pretty much immediately drawn to thinking about the weapons in the list; the staff and the sword/shield combo. I made a list of some various ideas that came into my head while brainstorming concepts, with the help of family and friends, so I could have a few options or themes to choose from.

Then I made some interest boards for the two ideas I liked the most;

The time themed sword and shield

The Gambling/Risk Staff

I started to sketch out some very rough basic staff concepts to try and get a shape and some ideas I could put together to form or inspire some aspects of my final design.

However, halfway through this process, I ended up moving a little bit away from the original gambling theme, as I started to find pins with raven feathers, chains and darker inspired aesthetics. I decided to allow myself to continue following the new line of thought, as I was struggling to concept design a gambling staff at that time and was quickly running out of time for the assignment, due to a lot of personal issues and moving house.
